I love anything with garlic. However, I don’t so much love the pungent breath afterwards, but it has to be worth it right? Garlic just gives everything a little extra kick! For me, it makes a recipe go from good to great! I don’t mind adding in a little extra garlic, but maybe the next day I’ll think differently on that idea.
Summer is now “officially” here according to our calendars. With the longest day of the entire year being June 21st, I hope you are delighting in the the longer days with more sunshine. I’m definitely not missing winter right now!
This is an easy and creamy, zesty, appetizer that I hope you can enjoy on a laid-back summer night. Perhaps you throw it together and enjoy after working out in the yard, or invite over some friends and watch the sun go down together. Whatever it may be, I think you will savor this simple summer dip.
